“The Empress will show poetically allegorically the facets of the poor and the rich in various communities” reports Brazilian Crypto news outlet Portal Do Bitcoin.
“Any value materialized in our currencies, banknotes, checks and cards will lose its meaning for virtual money? Let’s get used to not picking them up? Let’s understand that money is just an idea?
